Bill and you were best friends. Bill has visibly strong feelings for you, and he knew you knew that. You two were in the forest together now as you kept something from him. You were fidgeting with your fingers as you sighed.

“Bill… I can’t love you…” You said softly as you looked at him. “What? Why not?…” He asked.

“Because I need to be 19 to date you… And I’m 16…” You said, Bill looking at you, being on the verge of tears. “It’s religion…” You added quietly.
